Hemp Pesto
| This pesto really shows off our delicious and tender shelled hemp seed, evocative of pine nuts and sesame. With our fermented fava bean umami paste taking the place of the usual Parmesan cheese, it happens to be vegan too. It's superb as a pasta sauce but also good stirred into a potato salad, as a dip, or on bruschetta. |

Barley & Lentil Mejadra
Mejadra - or Mujaddara - is a simple but perfect store cupboard combination of lentils, rice or another grain, spices and crispy onions. You can find subtle variations across the Middle East but each is equally comforting and delicious. This version uses Hodmedod's Pilau Mix #2 in which the nutty emmer grains make a delicious British-grown substitute for the more usual rice, alongside our earthy olive green lentils.
Mushy Pea, Parsnip & Potato Cakes
These pea, parsnip and potato cakes from The Cook and Him are great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Marrowfat peas are best known as the traditional pea for making mushy peas though they're also fantastic in soups, dips and casseroles.
Chocolate, Tahini & Brazil Nut Granola Bars
A splendid diversity of flakes, nuts and seeds goes into these easy granola bars, easily adding up to over 12 plant species depending on the mix you choose. This is a great recipe to make with our Granola Bundles.
